Chapter 689: 678. City People's Life

  Chapter 689 678. City life

  Some people are a bit extreme, proud, and withdrawn...but because of certain relationships, they are destined not to be enemies with him, such as Harvey Gophero.

Suldak could feel the hostility in his eyes. Sitting at the square table in the cabin of Shande's butcher shop, his face was filled with all kinds of disgust. Shande usually lives in In the cabin of the butcher shop, the cabin was full of grease and musty smell. Harvey sat on a long bench, his buttocks seemed to be pierced with a few needles, and he kept changing his sitting position, but he was still not satisfied. .

   Harvey Gophero was of course extremely embarrassed in his heart.

Sitting on the bench, he looked like a warcraft that was locked in a cage and admired at will. He didn't even want to look at Surdak, and only hoped that this transaction would end quickly. He told Brunei The manager hinted at speeding up the process several times, but he knew the Brunei manager, he was the kind of meticulous person who would never do it because of his own.

  He was a little impatient, and his eyes fell on Signa who was standing at the window looking up at the dried Mora fish, and he was suddenly attracted by that white and immature face.

   "The butcher shop can't fit those wooden boxes, or we will trade outside?" Suldak stood up and said to the Brunei manager.

  The manager of Brunei clenched his hands into fists, and said excitedly, "I'm going to prepare the carriage, or you go to the street outside the market and wait for me first?"

   "That's fine." Suldak said, and after he finished speaking, he patted Sander on the shoulder and asked him, "Will you wait for me here, or go and see the wolf skin I hunted together?"

   "I'll go out with you to have a look too." After Sander finished speaking, he hurriedly put away the few Mora fish hanging outside.

Two nobles passed by outside the butcher shop, saw Sander locking the door, and saw some people standing around, one of the nobles' eyes lit up, stopped, and said familiarly: "Sander, is it you?" I have Salamander meat again, I ordered it in advance, so don’t forget to save a copy for me, it’s really hard to increase the affinity of the fire element now.”

Sander turned around, saw the two nobles on the street, and quickly said: "Don't worry, Baron Grodia, I will definitely not lose your share, as long as there is stock, I will notify you as soon as possible .”

  The two nobles nodded politely to Harvey and Suldak, and continued walking into the market.

  Sulda grabbed Signa, walked to the side of Selena and Samira who were bargaining with the stall owner, and told them to leave together.

  Samira is holding a bundle of fine steel arrow clusters in her hand, and the tight-fitting salamander leather armor on her body almost perfectly sets off the outline of her body. Even if her face cannot be seen with the hood on, I know she will not be ugly.

This is a magic market, and the goods on the stalls will have some magical attributes, so the price is also very expensive. Just such a bundle of fine steel arrow clusters costs almost two gold pieces from Samira, and the arrow clusters only contain A trace of fire attribute.

   This kind of arrow is a bit like an igniter, rubbing it on a boulder will spark a burst of sparks.

   "What did you all buy?" Suldak asked Selina, poking his head over to check.

"I didn't buy anything... Samira bought a bunch of arrow clusters." Selena pushed her long hair behind her ears and whispered to Suldak. The gentle smile in her eyes was definitely not a subordinate. The way you should treat a commander.

Harvey stood by the butcher's shop, looked coldly at the two beautiful women beside Suldak, and wondered what to say in order to convince Beatrice and Hathaway that Suldak was a shameless Liar, but it seems a little late to say anything now, after all, he has already made a marriage contract with Suldak. Thinking of this, Harvey's anger burned even more.

   Coming to the street outside the free magic market, Suldak chose a street with fewer people and watched magicians walking by in twos and threes.

  Selena has been guilty and panicked since the beginning, but now she can face it calmly. In fact, the adaptation process did not waste much time.

  The Brunei manager came soon and stopped on the side of the street with a four-wheeled horse fork.

  Suldak pulled out the wooden box from his magic pocket and laid it on the side of the street, which looked like a low wall.

A magic pocket can only hold more than twenty wooden boxes. He has two such magic pockets in total, and three magic pockets filled with magic sealing boxes filled with wind wolf meat. In the magic sealing box, so many wind wolf skins can only be packed in the most common wooden box, and Suldak did not expect to hunt so many wind wolves.

Sander and the coachman loaded the wooden boxes stuffed with windwolf skins into the carriage, and then the manager of Brunei put his heart down, and took Harvey with a gloomy face to board the back car with Gopher The magic caravan with the Luo family badge quickly disappeared into the bustling crowd outside the market.

Seeing Harvey Gefiro leave in the magic caravan, Selina complained to Suldak in a low voice: "Don't the nobles in big cities like to keep silent? He is trying to show how much he is. Gao Leng?"

   "Sometimes... it is difficult for us to break the invisible wall between nobles and commoners." Suldak could only smile and said to Selina.

Returning to this small butcher shop with Sander, Suldak took out a box of salamander meat. For this box of lizard meat, Sander waited for almost a month. He saw that Signa was still staring at the meat. Looking at dried Mora fish, I asked her, "Do you like fish?"

  Signa didn't speak, and stood there obediently.

  Sand directly chose the best dried Mora fish, handed it to Signa and said, "Take it if you like it, but it's a bit salty, it's best to soak it in water before eating."

This kind of mora fish is very strange. The front half of the body looks like a ferocious trout, but the back half of the body has eight tentacles like an octopus, and the tip of each tentacle has a paralyzing toxin that can poison a giant elephant. The body of the dried fish is curled up, and it also weighs dozens of catties.

  Suldak felt that Signa was just curious, and she probably never thought of eating such a strange thing.

  Seeing Suldak enter a magic sealing box and put it on the square table, the whole magic sealing box is flowing with a halo of magic.

  Many people in the magic market know that Sander specializes in salamander meat, but the butcher shop has been out of stock recently, making this place seem deserted.

The amount of salamander meat is not large, and Surdak does not hunt the salamanders in the territory unrestrainedly. Only the salamanders crawling out of the depths of the lava mine will be hunted, so as to ensure the salamander population. normal reproduction.

  Suldak then took out another magic sealing box, which was filled with wind wolf red meat.

  No way, in that desert, except for the sand bandits, there are these wind wolves.

   They never give up on their prey easily, and unfortunately, a large number of wind wolves are on Suldak's team. Therefore, the best way to get rid of these wind wolves is to kill them.

  Sande asked a little excitedly: "Will the Fenglang meat also be sold to me?"

  Suldak said to him: "Of course, the scope of our cooperation is not limited to salamander meat. Just like now, I hunted the wind wolf, and I will bring you the red meat of the wind wolf."

Looking around, this butcher's shop is really a bit cramped, Suldak patted the large magic-sealing box and said: "These wind wolf red meat almost occupied all my magic-sealing boxes, this one It won't fit in the house, you might have to rent a smaller warehouse."

  Sander didn't hesitate, he took Surdak out of the butcher shop, and said as he walked, "Then I will rent a warehouse now. It is actually very easy to rent a warehouse in the free market..."

Some properties on the periphery of the free magic market are mostly rented by vendors here temporarily. Some vendors do not have wooden houses like Shande in the market, but just set up stalls to sell their own items. Many such vendors will choose to rent houses nearby and live in Nearby is the most convenient.

  There are also many houses nearby that can be used as warehouses, and the lease period can be accurate to the day.

The rented house that Sander was looking for was just an independent room, located on the third floor of a row of surrounding buildings on the south side of the Freedom Magic Market. This room did not have any windows, and the inside was dry enough when the door was opened. Sander told Sulda Ke said: "Baron Surdak, you can put those boxes here."

  Selena and Signa saw Suldak dealing with vendors in the market for the first time, quietly following Samira, watching him pull out the magic sealing boxes one by one from the magic pocket.

   One, two, three...

  Seventy, seventy-one...a total of seventy-two boxes of wind wolf red meat.

After counting the whole process, Suldak actually took out seventy-two magic sealing boxes, which almost filled this warehouse to the brim. Sander looked at these boxes in shock, as if he forgot what to say .

Suldak patted Shande on the shoulder and said to him: "This time I will follow Marquis Luther to the plane to garrison, and it will take a long time to come back. There may be problems with the supply of salamander meat, and you will have to wait for a long time like today. , if sometimes the ingredients of Warcraft cannot be delivered as scheduled, you have to be patient."

  Sander recovered from the shock on his face, and said: "Um, Lord Baron, are you going to fight in the plane so soon, then I wish you good luck!"

Before the gates of Bena City were closed, Suldak took Selina, Samira and Signa out of the city, because tomorrow morning they would drive two hundred horses that had been eliminated to the horse market for trading. For Suldak, this was a big deal. Although it was 200 war horses that were eliminated, at the current high price in the horse market, each war horse was worth about 20 gold coins.

  The price of two hundred war horses is about four thousand gold. The value of these war horses is much higher than those of wind wolves.

  The horse market in Bena City is located in the southeast corner of the city. In order to facilitate the trade of horses and large livestock, horses enter the city through the city gate here, and the inspection does not need to be so strict.

In the early morning of March 13th, Andrew led 20 veterans of the cavalry battalion and drove 200 horses that had been eliminated into the horse market. He was immediately surrounded by a group of horse dealers at the entrance of the horse market. Twenty veterans of the cavalry battalion, Chaos Zhang is likely to take a horse or two away by these dishonest horse dealers.

It is rare to see some new faces in the horse market. The horse dealers saw that the horses that Suldak was going to sell were all ancient war horses. Although some of them were in poor health and some were wounded, these small problems did not affect the horse dealers. enthusiasm.

These horse dealers who have been dealing with livestock for a long time can tell at a glance that these horses are war horses that have been on the battlefield. Even if they cannot return to the battlefield, they still have several excellent bloodlines. , you can breed some ponies, and the value as a stallion will not be much worse than that of a war horse.

  The two hundred war horses hardly had time to rush to the horse market, and they were divided up by a group of horse dealers just at the entrance of the horse market.

Suldak's original expected price was about 20 gold per horse. Except for the seven horses with incurable diseases that could hardly be cured, the remaining 193 horses were all sold for 20 gold. good price.

  By the time Chaoyang climbed up the tower and dazzled the horse market, Suldak had already left the horse market with Andrew and a group of veterans.

   So far, all the expenses for this trip to the edge of the desert in the barren land have been fully earned from these war horses and wind wolves.

Andrew looked at the money bag in Suldak's hand, and couldn't help but said to Suldak: "Boss, let me tell you... let's just hunt those sand robbers in the desert, it's nothing like hunting wind wolves more profitable."

"I heard that the group of sand bandits in the center of the desert are not easy to mess with. This time we only dealt with some miscellaneous fish that were expelled from the desert. If we want to enter the desert, our current strength is not enough!" Sulda Ke led a group of people out of the horse market and said in his mouth.

Suldak also needs to purchase a batch of weapons for the cavalry battalion. Now the veterans of the cavalry battalion have all kinds of weapons, some are weapons carried by the veterans themselves, some are junk goods from Wall Village, and some are simply them. Snatched back from sand robbers, wearing these weapons, it looks more like a motley army.

  As a regular army with the establishment of the Bena provincial army, Suldak didn't want the cavalry battalion to look too shabby, especially when he still had some spare money on hand.

  Since Suldak has prepared a full-scale heavy armor, this cavalry will develop in the direction of the heavy cavalry regiment.

  The cavalry battalion is equipped with a batch of excellent knight spears, heavy flails, knight swords, knight light shields with metal skins, and standard military crossbows.

  I have long heard that you can buy excellent standard weapons at various prices at the military supply office in Bena City, and as long as you are not pursuing magic weapons, the price of ordinary standard weapons is still quite cheap.

   After dealing with the chores at hand, Suldak had some breakfast on the street outside the horse market, rode on Gu Bolai's horse and drove directly along the streets of the civilian area towards the Marquis Luther's mansion.

  In the morning in the civilian area, a large number of civilians hurriedly took to the streets. They wanted to go to the various workshops in Bena City early to start a day of hard work.

Compared with the homeless who can't eat every day, these civilians have some stable jobs in the city. Although they work hard every day, they can at least survive in this big city. Without competition, you will lose your job. When you can’t fill your stomach, you will also work as a temporary worker in addition to your original job. You almost live under the pressure of the workshop boss every day.

  For those who live at the bottom of society, life is not full of opportunities, and it is not easy to get rid of poverty.

   Every citizen of the Grimm Empire has a chance to stand up when he is twelve years old. As long as he awakens the magic pool in the magic awakening ceremony, he can become a magic apprentice, and the crow turns into a phoenix in an instant.

   Of course, you can also enter Zhanzheng College, study hard for a few years, only war will be full of opportunities everywhere...
